About Us

Fairmount Park is a sprawling institution located on Reservoir Drive in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, United States.

Philadelphia Parks & Recreation is dedicated to connecting city residents to the natural world and providing them with fun things to do and see.
One of the highlights of Fairmount Park is the closure of Martin Luther King, Jr. Drive to vehicular traffic on weekends, creating a shared space for walkers, runners, and cyclists to enjoy the beautiful views of the river and skyline.

The Farm Philly Program at Fairmount Park has expanded its community compost network, promoting sustainability and environmental awareness.

"I attended the Universoul Circus. It was fantastic, so many talented performers and so beautifully displayed!"
"I have only seen a small part of it but I am impressed. Free parking, picnic tables, nice trails and a basketball court"
"Absolutely beautiful! Clean, people jogging, very active. Felt safe. Easy free parking."
"Wonderful park. Wonderful for a family picnic, walking jogging and to relax and get some fresh air. The spring season of the year is the most beautiful here. If you want to see the cherry blossoms, well now is the time, there are plenty of beautiful cherry trees. The museum and Japanese garden is amazing too. The park is busy during spring season, so it is hard to maintain 6 feet distance with this Covid situations so be careful."
